We are looking for a detail-oriented accountant or bookkeeper to resolve a discrepancy with one of our key vendors. Over the past several months, our internal payment records and the vendor’s statements have fallen out of sync due to a mix of missing invoices, unapplied credits, and timing differences.

Your primary goal is to dig into the transaction history, find exactly where the numbers diverge, and provide a clean, final reconciliation statement that both parties can sign off on.

Discrepancy Identification: Identify missing invoices, duplicate payments, unapplied credit notes, or misallocated amounts.

Final Ledger: Provide a final reconciliation report showing the accurate, true balance owed to (or credited by) the vendor.

High attention to detail.
Strong communication skills to explain findings clearly and concisely.
